Re: October hauls! What did you get?

Happy birthday to everyone celebrating this month!! seeing how it's only the first week of October, I haven't picked up a whole lot yet.

I bought the Sephora Favorites kit from SiJCP and I loved the Smashbox BB cream so much that I bought the Light/Medium on its own. The one in the kit was Light and it is a little too light for me, I will be giving it to my sister.

Then I went to Nordstrom to pick up some Bobbi Brown face and eye cream, also got an eye makeup remover in order to get the gift with purchase. Also picked up a Laura Mercier Silk Creme foundation while I was there.

I got color matched yesterday at Sephora so I might be stopping by next week to pick up another foundation....can't decide between the Smashbox Liquid Halo HD or the Tarte Amazonian Clay 12-hr one. I've been on such a foundation kick lately, seems like I want them all. Somebody stop me

Re: October hauls! What did you get?

Ooh, I don't recommend the Tarte Amazonian Clay 12-hr foundation, mine oxidized on me so much, I looked like an oompa-loompa. And it was so thick, it would never set. And it was so hard to blend in. Maybe it will work differently for you, but I would definitely try out a sample first.

I'm not supposed to be buying anything until November (my own birthday month \o/) but I've recently had a bad bout of cystic acne so I just got Dr. Dennis Gross's Correct & Perfect. Fingers crossed it'll help.

Re: October hauls! What did you get?

I can't wait to head over to the bodyshop and get some mango beautifying oil and also I can't wait to buy a French manicure set (not sold at the body shop) those will be my little splurges for the month since I have to focus on my education. I love to see all of your hauls beauties!

Re: October hauls! What did you get?

I just ordered the Rich Choco...it's out of stock, but they'll ship it when it's in. I have to spend time not touching it too. And NOOOOOOOO I didn't even know about the Mercier one. Hmmm, what can I cut out this month so I can get that too!!! Browns are my fave for eyes.

Re: October hauls! What did you get?

Luckily I was able to use Discover reward giftcards for the above orders, so I didn't have to pay for a cent! Happy early Christmas to me

But I will probably be shelling out some green for the LM Palette... I don't mind investing in palettes with shades I know I'll use often, that have good quality and not tons of glitter. Thankfully I've stopped making so many Urban Decay shadow purchases!

Re: October hauls! What did you get?

sephora favorites rollerball collection is now in my possession and after some drama with the boyfriend rollerball being welded shut, i'm finally home and now i'm too tired to put all of my new goodies away haha. i redeemed for the full sized tresor, and cracked and got the desire mini. i also got a couple of man minis (it makes me giggle a little every time i say that haha) from a traveling box that was waiting for me when i got home today, so those will make some pretty stocking stuffers for him

i had to make a second trip to sephora before leaving portland to have a cast member open the boyfriend rollerball for me, it was stuck so bad, not even my boyfriend could open it without feeling like the glass was going to break! so i figured it would be best to either just exchange or see if someone could open it in store.. i didn't want to exchange a broken glass bottle and look like i maybe dropped it or something.

that set is SUCH a good deal! the tresor 1.7 oz bottle is $75, so i basically paid $10 for 5 rollerballs and a super pretty clutch
